When you think of the greatest living rock star on the planet, do you think of Kanye West? ‘Cause he does!
The admirably confident rapper took time during his 100-minute set at the Glastonbury Festival in England on Saturday to inform the crowd that they were witnessing greatness.

“You’re watching the greatest living rock star on the planet!” Kanye told the Glastonbury crowd, according to multiple outlets, including NME and the UK’s The Guardian.
According to the Telegraph’s live blogger, the crowd booed after Kanye’s declaration.
And that wasn’t only hiccup in the lengthy performance.
Comedian Lee Nelson jumped onstage during Ye’s set (wearing a “Lee-zus” shirt… get it?) but was quickly escorted away by security.
The British funnyman explained his stage crash on Twitter.
Some people were saying Kanye shouldn’t headline Glastonbury so I thought I’d give him a hand. pic.twitter.com/7KFk2kgjsM

BBC Radio 1 also posted a GIF of the moment Lee was tackled by security onstage.
